    Craft Courses Pembrokeshire

    Natural Dyeing Yarn and Other Fibres

    Learn a craft in Pembrokeshire, West Wales - learn how to hand dye Animal fibres (wool, yak, alpaca etc) and Cellulose fibres (cotton, linen, hemp etc) with natural dyes on our natural dyeing craft courses. 

    The craft courses are a hands-on learning experience using ancient dyes such as Madder, Weld, and Cochineal, to name a few. The courses are suitable for complete beginners and those that have a little experience. They are the foundation blocks of good practice for you to build and develop your own natural dye journey. You will leave with the knowledge to dye yarn and fabrics with lasting colour to use successfully in your projects at home.
